Cantón San José Budget Hotels

"We liked our stay at this hotel, and like the Japanese restaurant, but here are things that could be better: initially we stayed in a room that was too noisy (facing freeway). Second, we would have liked to have more hand and face towels; there was only one for both my wife and I. The location of the hotel is not that good, in that there is no way to walk to any place, like outside restaurants and shops, so we had to always take taxis. The breakfast buffet was mediocre."

"Main areas ok but hote room very outdated. Shower was cold. Coffee machine didn’t work and wasn’t fixed despite complaining. Area outside hotel grim, didn’t feel safe. Sadly would not recommend. "

"I’m currently staying at the Hotel Santo Tomas and it’s a total standout. The building was originally built in 1908, and they’ve done an incredible job maintaining that historic character while keeping everything comfortable. Even though you’re right downtown and close to everything, the property feels like a private oasis. Once you step inside, you completely forget you’re in the middle of a busy city. It’s quiet, incredibly beautiful, and the layout is perfect. The pool area is excellent... very lush and a great place to reset. They also include a solid free breakfast that actually hits the spot. If you want a place with real history and a peaceful vibe right in the heart of San Jose, stay here. I’ll definitely be back."

"Excellent restaurant, well maintained but rather old look. Neighbourhood is not great for going on walks outside…."

"Lovely classic lodging that worked perfect for us. We arrived very late due to travel mishaps and the receptionist was so nice and accommodating. We will come back when we have a short visit in San Jose next time!"

"Breakfast is good...fresh and delicious"

"The hotel was exactly like the pictures! The staff was friendly all around from the check in lobby to the bartenders at the bar. The breakfast had amble choices and we got there with only 20 minutes left of the breakfast buffet. "

"I stayed there for the second time after a two day trip elsewhere. My first room was good but the second one was even better. Beautiful, well furnished and spotlessly clean. I had dinner in the restaurant and although a little pricey the food was tasty and had an originality about it. The free breakfast was very good and set me up for the day. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this hotel again, it was brilliant. "

"Staff very welcoming. Gym and pool in good condition! Very close to the airport approx 18-20 min. "
